The paint on the throat and base is original and in excellent condition. The decal on the throat is worn, as you can see, but t is no paint flaking, no rust peeking through anyw, no damage of any kind or cosmetic issues of any significance. The cloth-covered leads running from the driver to the metal tips is in excellent shape, with no fraying or tears and still very flexible.
